Why OLAMIP was Created

OLAMIP is an open standard that helps websites communicate clearly and intentionally with AI.

Instead of letting large language models (LLMs) guess your content from noisy HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, OLAMIP provides a clean, structured file that summarizes your site’s most important pages in a format designed specifically for AI comprehension.

What Is an OLAMIP File?

An OLAMIP file is a simple JSON document hosted at the root of your website (/olamip.json). It contains curated summaries of your key pages, written in a way that LLMs can easily understand, index, and learn from.

Each entry includes:

  • Page title
  • Canonical URL
  • Human-readable summary
  • Optional metadata: tags, publish date, priority, and more

Why OLAMIP Matters

Modern websites are built for browsers, not for AI. As a result, LLMs often struggle to extract meaning from:

  • Complex, layout-heavy HTML
  • JavaScript-rendered content
  • Navigation menus and ads
  • Duplicate or irrelevant pages

OLAMIP solves this by giving LLMs exactly what they need:

  • A lightweight, easy-to-parse JSON format
  • Clean, curated summaries
  • Structured metadata

By adopting OLAMIP, you’re not just making your content more accessible, you’re taking control of how AI understands and represents your site.
